NATION
November 17 — 18, 2018
Lars Harmsen, Slanted Magazine
Working on the theme of NATION (community of people, formed on the basis of a common language, territory, economic life, ethnicity, a cultural-political community that has become conscious of its autonomy, unity, identity, and particular interests) we design FLAGS in a very playful and colorful way. The Workshop questions NATIONAL or PERSONAL SYMBOLS, examining the power of color. What would your personal FLAG look like? What would a Flag for the Department of Flying Saucers, Graphic Optimism, Dematerializing Language etc. look like? How would we resign NATIONAL FLAGS? The Workshop departs on experimental prints on the Risograph, creating a palette of designs and prints – to finish with a production of FLAGS that is exhibited during the Fikra Graphic Design Biennial 01: Ministry of Graphic Design.
